Is this an alright setup of //e? Sound card questions...

[RichardK-PB <atari@NOSPAMbtconnect.com>]

Got my Platinum IIe, got my other machines (one natural enhanced in poor 
shape (I know it's a natural, not upgraded, because it says 65C02 on the 
PCB ;) ) and another //e, plus a lot of cards, and joy of joys, my old 
AE 'black' PSU which I'd given away to a collector and hadn't been used 
- so the PSU-less Platinum got it.

Into the Platinum, I have fitted:

Slot 1 - Super Serial card
Slot 2 empty
Slot 3 - mouse card
Slot 4 - Transwarp
Slot 5 - Disk controller (for Unidisks, 19-pin D)
Slot 6 - Workstation card
Slot 7 - 4Mb Cirtech 'Flipper' card.

Plus the black AE PSU

Don't know what software to set up when it is netbooting to see how the 
4Mb card is behaving, presumably AppleWorks. Gotta find MouseDesk, too ;)

Also have three sound cards. One looks like crap, covered in 'potting 
compound' to hide the chips/layout, is branded 'Creative' on the back. 
One has a speaker on it and appears to claim to be a speech card of some 
sort - one side is plain PCB, the back is a tidy but very old-school 
single layer circuit (no passthroughs /at all/). The final card has 3 x 
AY sound chips and a 6522, no socket for speech or anything.
